The Naval War College.
THE VALUABLE COUHsE OF INSTRUCTION JUST FL
ISHED AT NEWPORT.


ISHED AT NEWPORT.
The Newport correspondent OF the New York
Times says: The course OF lectures at the naval
war college, constituting the scholastic term came
to close last Thursday, and was the most success
full and extensive, both theoretically and practl-
cally, that has thus far been delivered before
the members forming the class in attend
Jects were introduced which excited great
general interest, all beariug more or less
upon to perform, as his profession takes him from
one country to another, and especially they en-
larged upon the practical questions OF how naval
war should be most advantageously carried on.
Tue art OF naval war Is diScourSed upon at the
war college in way that obtains in no other SER
vice in the world, and the systematic treatment
here received is the theory the practical apDica-
tion Of which should result In successful carry
ing on by naval officers OF any maritime war In
which they may become engaged.
Among the lectures Of general interest outside
the strictly professional topics were those on the
subject OF the Isl hmian canals now prominently
before the public, which were clearly treated
showing how the great trade routes would have to
lie modified and altered by the canal without re-
gard to the exact part or the continent pierced,
time when It behOOves the United States to look
well to It's interests in the waters OF the Caribbean
Sea and in the Pacific. The course OF lectures on
International law was particularly valuable, and
constitutes in itself work OF reference unequaed
by any other OF the kind yet published That trio
ever prominent in matters naval, the ram the gun.
different officers, each taking one OF the weapons
and being its champion when it was introduced as
an antagonist against the two others This
method OF treating the subject kept up the inter-
est throughout, and resulted in a general discus
sion, in which much OF value was elected. Among
the subjects OF greatest interest and OF considera
bic novelty In naval circles should be mentioned
the naval war game, or "nayal duelS" as they are
termed which was presented very happily. the
method meeting with hearty approval
The lectures were supplemented by yalnable
practical exercises carried on by the crews of the
vessels forming the North Atlantic squadron,
which illustrated and rendered more forclble the
subject-matter treated upon In the lecture-room
and resulted TO the mutual benefit of the officers
both those afoat and the students at the college.
A large number Of the points OF greatest import
ance In the profession OF naval officer I'VE been
touched upon during the course Not BY any
means however has the whole range OF suhteciS
which is a very wide one, been gone over: but the
course as drawn up by the president Of the war
college, Capt. Alfred I. Mahan, includes an i'm
mense amount OF what is OF inestimable value to
those in active practice OF the naval profession
and much that cannot lie obtained from any other
source.
